Choosing flowers for her usually comes down to one question: does she like colour, or does she like calm? Someone who wears bright clothes and fills the kitchen with houseplants will probably enjoy hot pink roses or sunflowers. Someone who keeps things pale and simple is better served by an all-white or cream bunch.

If you are not sure, soft pinks and whites are the safest start, and a mixed bouquet is kinder than a single bold colour. Roses suit most occasions, but hydrangeas, peony lilies and spray roses make a bunch feel less like the standard supermarket option.

This page runs from a simple bouquet at the low end to a luxury bunch made entirely of peony-shaped spray roses, from two UK florists. MyFlowers says it offers same-day delivery across the UK on orders placed in time, so check the postcode checker before you rely on a date. Prices shown are for the smallest size of each bouquet, and larger sizes cost more.

  1. Simple Pleasures

    Hot pink roses with pink Baltika chrysanthemums in a bright, uncomplicated bunch. A good pick for someone who likes colour and a smaller bouquet that still looks generous.

  2. Simple White Letterbox

    An all-white letterbox bouquet of velvety roses and ruffled carnations. It posts through the door, so it works even if she will not be in to answer.

  3. Megapolis

    A crisp, all-white mix of carnations with spray and santini chrysanthemums. It suits someone who prefers neutral, clean-looking flowers to bright ones.

  5. Only You

    Lavender alstroemeria and pink carnations in a soft, scented bunch. A gentle choice for someone who likes flowers that fill the room.

  6. Feelings

    Red roses in a warm red and pink palette, so it reads as romantic without being the usual dozen red roses.

  7. Shining Love

    Sunny yellow roses with crisp white ones. Cheerful rather than romantic, so it suits a birthday or a thank you as well as a partner.

  9. Sunny Honey Bouquet

    Golden sunflowers with soft yellow spray roses and silvery eucalyptus, for someone who likes a gathered-from-the-garden look.

  10. Lily Cascade

    Pink peony lilies in a soft, airy arrangement, a step away from roses when you want something that looks a little different.

  11. Amethyst Bloom

    Pink peony lilies set against deep purple blooms. Richer and moodier than the pastel bouquets, for someone with bolder taste.

    Cream spray roses with white gypsophila. Restrained and pale, for someone who likes things understated.

  15. Sweet Peony Pinks

    A pink peony bouquet from a second UK florist, listed as a summer bouquet. Peonies are seasonal, so check stock close to the date.

Questions people ask

What flowers should I send her if I do not know her favourites?

Soft pink or white roses and spray roses are the safest choice, because few people dislike them. Add a card with a personal line and the flowers will feel chosen rather than generic.

Is it better to send a bouquet in a box or a hand-tied bunch?

A letterbox bouquet posts through the door, which helps if she works away from home. A hand-tied bunch looks fuller but needs someone to answer the door and find a vase.

How long do fresh flowers last?

With clean water, trimmed stems and a cool spot, most cut flowers last about a week, and some, such as chrysanthemums and carnations, can last longer. Check the care note that comes with the bouquet.
